This isn’t what a spectrum is. People who say “everyone has a little autism/adhd” are just wrong. Imagine somebody saying “everybody is a little pregnant” because people sometimes get nauseous in the morning and crave certain foods. It doesn’t work, you are either pregnant or not pregnant, and either adhd/autistic or not
That’s actually very false, and it is important for people to learn about their mental well-being.
On the spectrum of mental health where the perfectly healthy are on the very left, and the perfectly unhealthy are on the very right. The majority of people lie somewhere in the middle.
Mental disorders are not binary, like being pregnant or not being pregnant. There is a sliding scale. How much that disorder affects certain aspects of your life is how we measure the severity of that disorder.

Nobody is perfectly healthy, but that doesn’t mean everybody has the specific medical condition of autism or adhd.
